Your Experience
This experience calls for an unforgettable evening of authentic Japanese cuisine and culture! Enjoy a delicious dinner of authentic Japanese and Buddhist vegetarian cuisines to start off your experience on a high note.
Get swept off by the breathtaking culture of Japan, and even more specifically, the Geisha culture. A Maiko (a Geisha in the making, if you will) has significant ties to the cultural relevance of Japan. Spend some time talking to them and taking commemorative pictures with them while you can. Sit back on tatami-mat floors and watch them perform stunning Japanese dances. Conversing with them will give you a real taste of authentic Japanese culture. Participate in party drinking games, or Ozashiki-Asobi and other traditional Japanese games as well.
